    21: They Were Executed as They Slept — But There Was No Break-In | Dawn & Antonio Armstrong Story
    2025/12/11
    A former NFL player.
    A devoted mother.
    A home locked from the inside.
    And a teenager whose story never matched the evidence.

    Dawn and Antonio Armstrong Sr. were executed as they slept in their bed — pillows placed over their heads, no signs of forced entry, no weapon left behind.
    What unfolded over the next seven years would become one of Houston’s most polarizing and meticulously dissected murder cases.

    This episode unravels:

    • The chilling 911 call
    • The timeline the alarm system couldn’t hide
    • The interrogation and AJ’s shifting story
    • The family dynamics prosecutors say fueled motive
    • The trials, the hung juries, and the evidence no one expected
    • And the visitor sticker that revealed the truth seven years later

    20: She Found Out the Truth — and He Killed Her for It | The Murder of Alicia Lofton
    2025/11/26
    Alicia Lofton was a mother, a homeowner, and a woman who believed she’d finally found the kind of love worth building a life around.
    But behind the matching outfits, the inside jokes, and the online “couple goals” façade… cracks were forming.

    And on August 17th, 2023, those cracks turned deadly.

    In this episode, we break down the unraveling of Alicia and Marcus Lofton’s six-month marriage, the secret she reportedly uncovered, and the violent morning that ended with at least fifteen shots and a shattered window.

    This is a case about image, exposure, and the truth someone was willing to kill to keep hidden.

    19: He Ended It With a Disappearing Text. She Ended It With a Gun. | Brodes Perry and Latoshia Daniels Case
    2025/11/17
    When a pastor with a double life ended his relationship through a disappearing text message, he never imagined how deeply that moment would unravel every life connected to him.

    This episode breaks down the tragic chain of events that led Latoshia Daniels — a respected therapist and church leader — to drive more than two hours to confront the man she loved, only for the night to explode into chaos, heartbreak, and irreversible violence.

    This is a story about betrayal… about manipulation… and about the devastating consequences that follow when secrets piled high finally come crashing down.

    18: He Warned Her. Terrorized Her. Then Erased Her So Completely, Even Her DNA Was Gone. | Tiffany Foster Story
    2025/11/04
    Tiffany Foster was 35 years old, studying criminal justice, and raising three children when she disappeared in March 2021.
    For two years, her family waited for answers — and when the truth finally surfaced, it revealed a pattern of control, violence, and deception more horrifying than anyone imagined.

    In this episode, we examine how Tiffany’s fear became her warning, and how every digital trace — texts, videos, and evidence — exposed the man who tried to erase her.

    16: She Vanished Weeks Before Her Wedding: The Disappearance of Niqui McCown
    2025/09/21
    In July 2001, Marilyn Renee Nicole “Niqui” McCown was just three weeks away from her dream wedding. A devoted mother and bride-to-be, she left for a routine trip to the laundromat in Richmond, Indiana — and never returned.

    Her disappearance would launch a decades-long investigation marked by suspicious behavior, tangled relationships, and a chilling connection to another crime.

    In this episode of Unfinished, we retrace Niqui’s final hours, the desperate search by her family, and the lingering questions that have haunted them for more than two decades.

    Join me as we explore a case that challenges what we think we know about love, obsession, and the silence that follows when justice remains unfinished.

    15: What Is DeAndre’s Lawyer Even Thinking? | Ashley Elkins Case Update 3
    2025/09/03
    This isn’t the update anyone expected.
    The prosecution didn’t call a single witness.
    Instead, it was the defense leading the charge—raising doubts about the investigation, questioning the officers’ actions, and suggesting the unthinkable:
    Was DeAndre Booker the only suspect investigators should’ve been watching?
    In this episode, we break down the courtroom strategy that’s stirring discomfort and controversy.
